  1. My money says probably would be a strain on the machine. 1/2" is some heavy stuff. The blades are angled to cut perpendicular wood grain, not plastic.
  2. Should have asked Gemma to help unload the timber.
  3. Unconditional Discharge 🤗 "God speed" 😆 Did anyone else catch Sky News grilling the mayor of LA? She was mute as a mute thing... Diverted 20 million from the LA fire service and spent it on rainbow stuff and the police. Don't know why the police need more money, a couple years ago they were all about "de-funding" the police. And crime has dropped massively in LA since the city council legalized shoplifting and petty theft. Weird.. The decades long pathological refusal to control burn the undergrowth is the issue. Climate cultists.. the native Americans were control burning since thousands of years, I read.. Yeah, California has some weird laws around water and special minnows. It was a problem a decade ago and it's a problem now. And it all their own stupid fault. Vote stupid, get stupid outcomes... What can you do but shrug?
  4. They really, really needed to stick the "convicted rapist" badge on Trump, but people didn't believe it. A little investigation and intellectual honesty showed the whole thing was a lawfare hit-job. If the flagrantly sleasy way the trial was conducted, the people involved in the prosecution, and even the law being changed to facilitate the case being brought, wasn't enough, check this out. E. Jean Carroll wasn't surprised 'Law & Order: SVU' aired Bergdorf Goodman rape scene 7 years before she made Trump allegations WWW.BUSINESSINSIDER.COM A 2012 episode of the"Law & Order: SVU" referencing a rape in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room...
  5. Woke bullying doesn't affect me any more, I acquired natural immune to it. Have you ever tried proactively debunking the leftist/liberal outrage talking points? Like, for example, take a liberal media outrage story about a teenage girl in Texas dying of sepsis, input her name into google followed by "debunked". You get a whole nother narrative and facts which were previously omitted. The picture becomes more complicated and neuenced. Doesn't mean it's stops being tragic, but it puts thing in perspective. When everything is broad strokes and moral rage, the details get ignored. Thing is, perspective can only be reached when we want it. Telling others about the omitted facts is met with denial. The curiosity has to come from within. I was attempting to reflect back at you the kind of mechanistic moralistic generalities the leftist establishment has forced on us for years. **************** the individual, the greater good etc. They zoom in on a minority case, dramatize it, sentimentalize it, then call for a draconian societal overhaul based on emotion aroused by said case. Granted, the "right" does it too, and it stinks. And the right also get hysterical about stuff for agitprop purposes.
  6. Noted, thanks, but what is the biological mechanism by which they get torsioned? Also, real men voted for Harris
  7. Why do testicles get torsioned and how do we prevent it? (Better than cure).. Also, the deaths from abortions bans (very rare) will be vastly offset by increased live births. For the good of the many, and stuff. Like with Covid ("**************** your freedoms") Leftist values etc..
  8. Send them over here, Donald. They'll be good for the UK economy.. 👍
  9. Nah. BRICS is leveling up the global south. Birth rates are falling worldwide, less babies, more jobs = less migration. At the same time, the west is getting poorer, in real terms. And now with the rightward shift in USA it will get tougher on migration. Less attractive to migrants as time goes by.
  10. Not this time, the political and cultural scenery has radically changed. Notice how there's no pushback from the Dems this time? They're done, cooked. This time, the team will be solid, no more Bolton's and Tillersons. He owns social media this time. The mainstream media have surrendered. Yep, the signs are there to see...
  11. Hi all. Just checking in to gloat a bit...thanks for the chuckles. Quite a gratifying result. The YouTube tarot readers and mediums aren't too happy, obviously.
  12. Hearsay and outright lies. All this stuff has been thoroughly debunked years ago, and new smears are easily exposed as the hit jobs they are. For example. Remember that woman he was convicted of raping? (by a kangaroo court set up specifically to kneecap him). She's a nutcase. Check her bio. Twenty five plus years and she never brought charges. New York conveniently changed the law to allow for statute of limitations exception for civil charges of rape. Very conveniently indeed. Almost just for her. She had "impulsive relations" with Trump in a changing room. Then lied twenty five years later and "remembered it differently". Then sued him for slander for calling her a lier. And won. In a corrupt political court. Paid? Who knows. She got something out of it. Revenge for not being a Mrs Trump, maybe. if someone falsely accused you of something, and you called them a liar, how would you feel if they then sued you for calling them liar, and won? You'd feel like justice was dead and buried. You'd feel like there was a political conspiracy against you. And you'd be right. Well, this is how Trump's supporters feel. They see it plain as day. This is why none of the media manufactured scandals have dented his support. As for the people who believe the media nonsense, they cannot be reasoned with. If they still buy the tabloid narratives after 8 years, they're not going to change now.
  13. Liberalism/progressivism is a far bigger cult than Trumpism. MAGA conservatism is the protestant movement in the sixteenth century compared to the RCC of contemporary liberalism.
  14. Yeah you're right, that figure was exaggerated. That's the Trump influence. They don't all vote. Same as people of the left. USA has what, 350 million people? Say 300 adults. Say 100 million odd (generously) are politically ambivalent. Leaving 100 mill conservative and 100 mill liberal. Of the hundred million "politically active" right/left groups, probably 75% of each group vote in presidential elections. Adjust my figure down to 75 million. Lived experience, Peds 😉. They like Trump. And many of them are Women, Hispanic, Black, poor, rich, and so on. Back to my original point: I suppose if we asked a bunch of different conservatives "how do/will liberal policies harm you" they will each give a different reply, from the very personal to the macro view. It may be paranoia or "wrong values" or itay be true, we cannot know for sure. But it's their lived experience. If we ask American liberal voters the flip question, they will do the same. Some of them will rattle off the list of talking points. I suppose it all comes down to ones pont of view...
  15. The 13 amp plug never gets warm, let alone hot. I was paranoid about this in the early days and still check it once in a while. It has blown the fuse a couple of times though. According to my guy the amp spike was only momentary and only if the splitter encountered hard stop resistance (enough resistance to activate the hydraulic bypass valve). I'm mindful of this and back off when a knot won't split, and approach it a different direction. At this stage I can tell by the sound when the machine is laboring. My machine is 3kw (startup?) I recall the new switch (and the old one) was rated for about 2.3kw or something, which thought a bit iffy. I can check, of anyone is interested. The switch/cap blowout occurred during a hard pull, I think. 80% sure. Loud pop and burnt plastic smell. Forensic examination by a different (experienced but not certified) spark friend, suggested maybe the switch failed first, taking out the cap? Capacitor was well and truly popped. Replaced with a better quality cap of the same spec. don't know if any of this info is interesting to anyone, but there it is.
  16. Weird how 150 ish million conservative voters don't agree with your liberal media talking points. Maybe their lived experience is different 🤔
  17. Definitely not a dig, my guy is a qualified spark. I know next to nothing about electrics, that why I requested he check my machine under the conditions I run it. He reckoned the amps spiked when the ram bottomed out or hit a serious knot that it wouldn't break through. IIRC 17 apms was mentioned, don't know if that makes any sense? We haven't tried the test on the new setup, with the beefier supply cable. I always unwind the cable fully
  18. I agree, it shouldn't be. But the nature of bifurcation of values and vision in America makes any enforcement of policy by either party president an act of harm to the other side, by default. Which is interpreted as revenge. And probably with accuracy, in some cases. I actually don't think Trump will go on a personal revenge binge, although if he does I wouldn't blame him. But it's fun to scare liberals on the internet. 😉
  19. If you are a Trump supporter you will know and what for. If you are not, you will never understand.
  20. Yes indeed. It will be gratifying.. Retribution cometh.
  21. This. The "15 amp blue plug" splitters will run ok on a 13 amp domestic plug, but need a proper gauge cord. I had a proper electrician test mine with an amp meter while running, on a 30 meter, 2.5mm unwound reel. He said it was close to borderline but ok. After a few seasons of this, and occasionally running a 50 meter 1.5 cord on away from home jobs, the switch and capacitor blew up. After replacing, I noticed the shorty "15 amp" cord that come with the splitter is only 1.5mm itself. Thick rubber with small wires inside. So I wired my 2.5mm cord straight to the machine, permanent. IMO the 15 amp machines probably the factory cord upgraded from the start.
  22. I'm doubling my money on Britain's foremost psychic... Twitter is exploding with rumors that King Charles has passed away today.
  23. Why does the Zomax have an extra filler cap by the back handle? I must say, my Lidl Parkside 55cc saw has been reliable and capable. Don't know if it's a zomax though..
  24. Ok. Are they up to stopping a gusher though? With the celox product they say you really have to pack it into the wound and stuff.
